A Congress Hall, Cape May Classic Romance Wedding Inspiration Photo Shoot

Congress Hall - Cape May, NJ

To photograph a wedding in Cape May, New Jersey is like a dream. It is such a cute town with so much history behind it. From the beautiful beaches, to the cute shops and great dining, it is not only the perfect getaway spot, but also the perfect wedding location!

We’d LOVE to capture more weddings in Cape May! So, we were talking to Krystina, the Director of Events at Congress Hall, and dreamed up this styled shoot. Since we haven’t captured a wedding at Congress Hall in a few years, we wanted to show brides and grooms how we would capture a wedding at this gorgeous location. There is romance just oozing from every corner! So, we put together the BEST group of vendors that we’ve worked with!

Emily from Narola Design + Letterpress knocked it out of the park with her Paper Suite and Design! And the Calligraphy from Charlie Whiskey Design was SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I absolutely fell in love with this escort card display! We wanted to stay local, so we visited the beautiful bridal shop, Free Love Bridal, located right in Cape May! The owner Betsy was an absolute joy to work with and helped to find the perfect dress! This dress from Allure Romance just screams Classic Romance, am I right?! The jewelry borrowed from Harry Merrill & Sons was so exquisite! This estate floral diamond ring was absolutely stunning. Steve helping his beautiful wife Carly get ready 🙂 Blush clutch to match the dress from Free Love Bridal. Thank you to Jess from Your Day Your Way for doing Carly’s hair and makeup. You helped Carlys’ beauty shine even brighter than normal! This floral circular arch is a new addition to A Garden Party, and I am in love! Carly and Steve renewing their vows under the arch! We could not have been more thankful that Carly and Steve were available to model for us! Their chemistry, their love, the laughter between them that is so contagious – they are the epitome of Classic Romance, and a couple that is truly in love with one another for all the right reasons. We love the both of you so much and can not thank you enough! The bicentennial china at Congress Hall was absolutely gorgeous. Right outside the main doors, we set up a donut wall, instead of having a normal wedding cake! A Garden Party never disappoints! These flowers, the bouquet, and all the little details were perfect!
